It rained for the first time in a very long time. I got up very early, the muffled patter woke me and I realized I last heard it sometime in June. I watched the day get lighter, not very light because the clouds were heavy. But oh boy, it rained.
By the time I'd had my second cup of coffee I couldn't stand it another minute. I absolutely had to get right out in the middle of that rain. You know how rain smells? I swear I could smell it before I could get the door open, it was that good.
So, bearfoot, wearing somebody's too big, too long, old ragged T-shirt and with camera in hand, I stepped outside and just let it rain all over me. What an incredible way to start this day!
It washed the dust off the plants and I swear they turned greener right in front of me. The cracks in the soil faded away, and so did the cobwebs in my mind.
It was such a really good day!
